How do I interrupt someone who won't stop talking?
Use a physical cue first (like leaning forward or raising a hand slightly), then wait for them to take a breath. That's when you slide in with: "If I could just jump in here for a second..."
What exactly does "reading the room" mean?
It means observing the unspoken dynamics. Are people looking bored? Confused? Frustrated? You adjust your language based on those observations. If they look confused, you pivot: "Let me frame this a different way."
Is "piggyback" too informal for business?
It is widely accepted in modern corporate settings, especially in North America. However, if you are at a strictly formal or diplomatic event, "To build on that point" is the safer, elevated choice.
